Hogwarts: I Really Don't Want to Be a Wizard - Chapter 122

c122 conjugated parent and son

Grete thought about buying off some goblins, but the entire financial system is controlled by the goblins.

The goblins are a strange race. They only think that everything they make belongs to them. It is completely impossible to buy them off with gold galleons.

If he uses other precious things, he has nothing else except those special spells or his own unique business.

But these things can’t be given away. Giving them away is undoubtedly a way to protect oneself.

Like other magic materials, potions, etc., goblins can buy them. There is no richer race than goblins in the entire magic world.

In addition, these wizards seem to be blinded by a leaf, and few people can see this.

I want to find someone to sneak in, but the goblins have always been unwilling to have any connection with wizards, and few wizards can become their guests.

Even if I want to change my appearance and sneak in, it is not easy.

Just looking at the various anti-theft measures they used when guarding the vault, you can tell that it is not an easy task to sneak in.

If there is any more entanglement, you will have to trap your own people.

After thinking about it, I finally gave up this idea and had to think of other ways.

It is really difficult to get information about goblins. There are still some clues about those who have contact with the outside world.

But when it comes to things within their clan, it is really confusing.

It is so tight that there is no way to get involved.

If it were in the Muggle world, Grete would not be unable to think of any means. The most feared thing in the financial industry is a run.

If Grete Communications Company was in the Muggle world, with their scale, running a bank would not be a difficult task, not to mention easy.

But for Gringotts, it is still an old bank that has been run by goblins for so many years and has remained standing. They really don’t know how to start for a while.

After all, unlike Muggles, for the sake of portability and better management, all countries have converted official currencies into paper money for circulation over the years.

Precious metals are generally used as margin in the financial industry in various countries.

The magic world is not like this. With the traceless extension spell in hand, let alone refined gold and silver currency, even raw ore is not inconvenient to carry.

Besides, the size of Muggles is too large, a thousand times that of wizards, which also leads to the fact that using precious metals as currency is not only inconvenient to circulate, but also easy to cause currency shortage.

Wizards don’t have this worry. After all, the scale of wizards is still too small.

Even if the wizards in the world add up to only millions of people, the small island of Britain has only 60,000 to 70,000 people at most.

So the goblins will never have a shortage of precious metals, so they don’t need to change metal currency into paper money in order to increase the issuance.

Just make as much as you need.

In this situation, even if Grete wanted to use a financial run to make wizards withdraw money in a hurry, and then force Gringotts into bankruptcy, he couldn’t do it.

After all, if it was that simple, the last time they took the money from Dawn, the financial system of the entire wizarding world would have been in turmoil, starting from Gringotts.

Grete thought about it, but couldn’t find a good way.

Finally, he had no choice but to start a remote meeting of core members.

One person’s shortcomings are better than two people’s long-term plans. It is much better to have more people working together to find a solution than for him to be anxious and scratching his head alone.

It’s a pity that these core members are not much older than him.

Although they have talent, they lack some social skills and social experience.

They have a lot of ideas, but none of them are useful.

Seni, the right-hand man of the Minister of Intelligence, was found by him in the black market. He is in his early twenties.

I don’t know if it’s because he has been in the black market for a long time, but the ideas he puts forward are basically unorthodox.

For example, he suggested that since they were going to fight the goblins anyway, they might as well offer a huge reward for a task in the black market.

Let the people in the black market do it for them. As long as they have money, those desperate people dare to do anything.

Many people in the black market have lost their official status. Even if they fight the goblins, the goblins have no reason to fight the wizards.

Grete thought about it and still felt that it was not appropriate.

After all, they have not even collected much information about the goblins, let alone find out the details.

What if the goblins, who have been recuperating for many years, have already surpassed the wizards in strength?

Maybe at that time, finding the desperate people in the black market to fight, just gave the goblins a reason to fight.

At that time, they would not care whether the desperate people in the black market have an official identity or not.

After all, in their view, aren’t these people all wizards?

In history, when goblins and wizards went to war, they didn’t care about the old, the weak, women and children.

All wizards are their enemies. To be frank, they think all humans are their biggest trouble.

Grete was so worried that he didn’t relax his brows for a long time.

The more he understood the goblins, the more he felt that the predecessors who had “won” the goblins were full of water in their heads.

It would have been fine if they didn’t pursue the victory, but they also got a lot of benefits for the goblins, so that when he takes action now, he is constrained everywhere.

If Grete was asked to find a task to compete with his predecessors in his past and present lives.

He could only think of an old guy in an anime he had seen before.

After the war was won, not only did he not ask for war reparations, but he also used the finances of his own village to compensate the war opponents.

Gret felt that if these people met each other, they would definitely become close friends and play a song of harmony.

Some people also said that since wizards and fairies could not go to war, could they win over a group of alien races?

Anyway, as long as wizards did not take action, fairies would definitely have no reason to go to war with wizards.

This idea was unique.

But after thinking about it, Gret still put this proposal on hold.

There was no way. The wizards in the past were really cruel. It can be said that except for the fairies, all other alien races were beaten.

The orcs were driven to the northern wilderness, and the vampires were forced back to the dark forest.

The hatred in their hearts was no less than that of the fairies.

These alien races could reach a cooperation agreement with the fairies, but they would definitely not give wizards a good face.

It can be said that since the wizards emerged, none of these alien races have had a good life.

The house elves have even forgotten their ancestors, lost their history, and completely become vassals of wizards.

No matter which alien race, they must be afraid that they will fall to this point.

Even if they are lucky enough to reach a cooperation, wizards will be afraid of their betrayal, and they will also be afraid that wizards will stab them in the back.

Besides, Grete may not be able to pay the required compensation.

The current financial system of the magic world, even if they are richer, can they be richer than the goblins who directly control the coinage right?

Before uniting all the wizards, Grete felt that he must first return the financial system of Britain to the hands of wizards.

Halfway through the meeting, Penelope, the butler, suddenly mentioned something.

After the settlement of the communication business in America last month, the finance department in charge of Penelope took the deposit slip to Gringotts in England for redemption.

It took several hours to complete the settlement.

This situation had never happened in Gringotts before, but it was just a delay in the end.

So Penelope didn’t list this as a key information.

She just mentioned it in the monthly financial report submitted to Grete.

Now that she was going to take action against the goblins, Penelope wondered if there was something hidden in this matter.

Grete didn’t see it because he was busy with a lot of things recently.

Besides, he rarely looked at the monthly report. He would only take time to pay attention to the quarterly and annual reports.

Now that Penelope mentioned this, Grete also sent someone to bring him the records.

Sure enough, at the end of the report, in addition to listing the recent income and expenditure of Dawn Finance, Penelope also mentioned it specifically.

According to the rules of Dawn, all things that are different from the usual must be specially marked in the monthly report.

If he hadn’t been too smooth recently, causing him to become a little lazy, he should have discovered this matter a long time ago.

“Penelope, tell me the details.”

“We settle business with Gringotts, usually at the end of each month. At the end of last month, when I sent someone to Gringotts to retrieve the profits of the communications company for that month, Gringotts did not pay in time.

The person I sent out was delayed in Gringotts for three hours, during which he was arranged to sit in an office for a long time.

Finally, it was the manager of Gringotts who came out and said that they were too busy recently and they couldn’t coordinate the manpower for a while, which delayed us a lot of time.

But when the person from our Finance Department came back, he said that he had vaguely felt several obscure spatial fluctuations in the office.

By the way, this person worked in Comrade Seney’s Intelligence Department before he came to work in our Finance Department.”

Hearing this, Seney straightened his face, and he realized that the person that Grete talked to Penelope was actually someone who came out of their Intelligence Department.

But this person was transferred from the Intelligence Department to the Finance Department with Grete’s permission.

Grete trusted their group of old partners, but Dawn has expanded its recruitment recently.

No one can guarantee whether the newcomers are as loyal to their beliefs as they are.

So after discussing with Grete, their Intelligence Department put a few spies into each department.

Just for internal monitoring.

All of their core members knew about this and agreed tacitly.

Otherwise, a person who had just transferred to the Ministry of Finance would not have been so easily trusted by Penelope and able to go to Gringotts to redeem this month’s income.

Now that Penelope pointed it out, Seani certainly knew that she was not shirking responsibility.

It was really this group of sand that was deliberately mixed in, and only he, the Minister of Intelligence, had detailed information.

“Yes, Paige is an elite in the shadow department of the Intelligence Department. He had been monitoring the Death Eaters until we reached a cooperation intention with the Order of the Phoenix, and then he was withdrawn to the Ministry of Finance for secret internal monitoring.

If he said that the space fluctuated, I think the confidence should be at least 90%.”

Grete glanced at Seani. As the Minister of Intelligence, he has always been cautious and never guaranteed anything that was not 100% confirmed.

So, if he said 90%, then we can basically conclude that it is a certainty.

“Sennie, Penelo, I give you permission. Let Paige connect to our meeting now.”

Before Paige connected, Grete used his authority to blur the faces of everyone at the meeting.

There are quite a few people here, and they can’t be exposed so rashly now.

Even if Paige has passed the loyalty test long ago.

“Leader.” Obviously, before Paige connected, Penelo told him who he was going to see.

“I am sure that Gringotts has at least more than ten fluctuations. It was not until the fluctuations ended that someone took me out of the office to handle business.

That office has the function of isolation and detection, but even so, it can still be detected, so that fluctuation is definitely intercontinental.”

Grete thought deeply. Although the goblins discriminate against wizards, they have never neglected customers like this.

Especially big customers like Dawn, they will not neglect them.

After all, they can extract a considerable handling fee for every transaction that flows from Gringotts.

So, something must have gone wrong inside Gringotts.

After Peg left the connection, Gretel suddenly thought of what happened in July.

Voldemort was resurrected, Gringotts in England secretly contacted the Death Eaters, the dawn of hope, Dumbledore was caught in a storm of public opinion…

This series of events was instantly connected in Gretel’s mind.

Yes, Gringotts in America must be trying to break away from the control of Gringotts headquarters.

Just as the Muggles who left England established their own country.

The wizards also followed the trend and established their own Ministry of Magic.

Gringotts would naturally not let go of the Golden Land.

However, at the beginning, whether it was Muggles, wizards or goblins, their identities were all wanderers who left England.

No one expected that after several centuries, whether it was Muggles or wizards, the father-son relationship with England was completely reversed.

Conjugated father and son, it is not just the Muggle society.

The American Ministry of Magic has long been independent, and even took away the status of the British Ministry of Magic.

The goblins in Gringotts have also been struggling in America for centuries.

How could they not have some tricks in their mind?

They didn’t react when Voldemort caused chaos in England last time.

Of course, it could also be that Voldemort was defeated too suddenly, so their plan was not complete.

They lay dormant for another ten years.

Now, Voldemort has finally started a rebellion, and Dawn has also come in. It seems that the whole of England is about to become a mess.

Of course, they have to try to find a way to turn over and become the big brother, just like the American Ministry of Magic, which was caught off guard and became a yoked father and son with the British Ministry of Magic.
